EP129 What Lenses Do You Want? The Random Photography Show

Justin and Jim kick off with Andrew Rovenko’s latest award-winning film project before diving into real-world wedding turnaround expectations, client experience, and sneak peeks. The crew then riffs through Fujifilm’s “camera without a lens,” Canon and Sony rumors, and a big community lens wishlist—dream zooms, missing primes, and brand gaps. They finish with viewer images, high-ISO problem solving, Bruce’s GFX100 workshop masterpiece, and a wild projector-lens shot that has everyone talking.

Andrew Rovenko joins us at the beginning, to chat about his recent award. then we will dig into all the latest in photography news, rumours and then we check out your images.

Oh and let's tell camera brands what lenses we want made!
